Everything Everywhere Daily - A History of Textiles, Fabrics, and Cloth

I would say that there is a very good chance that almost everyone listening to the sound of my voice right now is wearing something made of cloth. 

Cloth, textiles, and fabrics go back a very long way, but despite their ancient origins, not every culture had them. 

Yet, where they existed, they were often some of the most valuable commodities, and they were, in some fashion, used by everyone from rich to poor. 

Learn more about cloth, textiles, and fabrics, their origin, and how they’ve changed throughout history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘We Were Once a Family’ examines how the foster care system failed the Hart siblings

In 2018, Jennifer and Sarah Hart drove off a cliff in California, killing themselves and their six adopted children. While much of the media attention focused on the two women, reporter Roxanna Asgarian set off to investigate what had happened to the children's birth families, and why they'd been removed from their care. In today's episode, Asgarian speaks with Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes about her book, We Were Once a Family, and the ways the foster care and child welfare system in the United States pushed the Hart siblings into an abusive and ultimately fatal situation.

The Indicator from Planet Money - The conservative roots behind the Chevron doctrine

When the Supreme Court decided Chevron U.S.A., Inc v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. 40 years ago, it didn't turn many heads. But eventually, it became the most widely cited case in all of administrative law. It set a legal precedent to give federal agencies the benefit of the doubt when the law is ambiguous, known as Chevron deference.

Now, a recent Supreme Court decision has set in motion another tectonic shift, effectively ending that precedent. Today, we dig into what Chevron deference is and how it actually came about. Then tomorrow we'll continue our focus on this significant change by looking at the potential fallout.
